Participate in Map-Drawing

Map Drawing Software

Dave’s Redistricting App is an online web app originally that allows anyone to simulate redistricting a U.S. state’s congressional and legislative districts.
 

The goal of Districtr is to put the tools of redistricting in the hands of the public, with an emphasis on meeting the needs of civil rights organizations, community groups, and redistricting commissions.

DistrictBuilder puts the power of drawing electoral maps in the hands of the people. Redistricting can be a transparent process that represents communities fairly and prevents gerrymandering.
